A dual monitor setup with one widescreen and one square monitor?

Sunday, June 21st, 2009

I run Vista on my computer and I am planning on getting a second monitor to have a dual monitor set up. I do web design and I thought it would be a good idea to have one wide and one standard monitor to see how web pages are layed out in both formats. However, is this something you can do? Will it cause a screwy resolution for the two together?

How much is Windows server 2003 different than XP (specifically xp 64-bit)?

Monday, June 8th, 2009

and If u`ve tried windows server 2008, how much is it different than windows server 2003?
I need to use the one that uses least system resources… I`m not even intrested in networking.. but I put windows server in consideration because its more stable (I guess) than xp (I`m talking about 64 bit OSes)… and because it uses less resources than Vista (still talking about 64 bit OSes)..

so, now, which of the two uses less resources? server 2003 or xp?

How to choose between windows xp and vista for my note book?

Thursday, April 16th, 2009

I’m buying a note book and I prefer vista. I heard that there are many problems with vista till date and so it is recommended to get XP and upgrade to vista. Is it still valid now?

If I upgrade from XP to vista, will it be a waste a hard disk space?? Will it consume too much of my hard disk space?

What is the recomended spec for my note book if i want to run vista smoothly.
